vs
Tires IRONMAN or WEST LAKE
Westlake makes pretty affordable tires that should be within your budget. They perform decently well but dont last as long as a standard tire from my experience. I believe I got approximately 25k miles out of them
Pros: affordable tires, decent performance
Cons: dont last as long
Vehicle:
Kia Sportage
Mileage: 40233 km
I'm in ironman gen 2 from tire discounters all 4, i got all the tires and the mount and a alignment and balancing for like 400$ bucks with the deal they run. And a free oil change. But the ironmans have done me well they did good in rain and snow and i haven't exactly been nice to them, handled potholes too.
Pros: good in rain and snow
An ultra-high-performance all-season tire, the iMove Gen 3 A/S from Ironman is designed for use on sport and performance-oriented coupes and sedans. Built with large shoulders that improve cornering and handling, the iMove Gen 3 A/S features an all-season rubber compound that allows for solid traction in dry, wet, and light winter weather conditions.
Pros: solid traction, quiet ride
Eto based lang sa observation in owning a Westlake ah, yun binili ko, pero yun mas bagong model RP26 mas panalo yan. ganda ng handling and takbo kahit sa basa kasi maganda yung mga grooves nya sa gilid pang disperse ng water ang dami tapos soft compound sya kaya makapit talaga mga gantong gulong pang all weather, tapos ang hardness level matigas halos pang SUV na kaya kahit malubak lubak di takot hehehe!
Pros: ganda ng handling, soft compound
Cons: hardness level matigas
Part number: RP26
Ironman and milemaker are the last two sets and they lasted about 75% of what a premium brand would.
Cons: shorter lifespan
Ironman is a value line. They are not awful, also not outstanding. Wet traction and winter traction are not gonna be their strength.
Cons: poor wet, winter traction
Money forced my hand a couple summers back and I had to put new front tires on my Grand Marquis at the time. Had to go cheap and bought Ironman iMove all seasons. After a few months the only positives on the ledger were that a) they had tread and b) oddly, they balanced out unbelievably well. 80 MPH on the highway, smooth as glass. Ride and handling quality deteriorated quickly from new and they got loud in a hurry.
Pros: balanced well, smooth at speed
Cons: deteriorated quickly, got loud
Yep the Westlake winters on my 2019 Honda Passport have me wondering if i have winters on at all.
Cons: wondering if i have winters
Vehicle:
Honda
Și a luat fratele meu westlake acu 3 ani. Le a echipat pe un Mondeo mk4 și la prima zăpadă a ajuns în șanț..
Cons: ajuns în șanț
Vehicle:
Ford Mondeo
This tire is new Iron Man. This is the second chunk missing; the other tire was replaced under warranty. It’s new, maybe 2 months old.
Cons: chunks missing, warranty replacement
